I will be having my surgery on September 29th! I am so excited! Its been a long process to get the approval both from my insurance and from my boss for the time off, but I finally have both and will have surgery in less than 2 weeks!

I finally understand what all the excitement over getting a surgery date is about!

Good luck to all the folks getting sleeved tomorrow. Catch you on the loser bench.

Up so nervous. 1 more day...

Congratulations, wishing you the best!

Counting down by the hour.. 25 hrs to go. :-/

Headed to the hospital now!!

Hope you all had great surgeries! Wishing you the best recoveries!!!

Whoa! Ok, about 9 hours post op and needing some advice and encouragement. Very nauseous! And the pain in my chest from the gas is...well...painful! Whoever said to bring Chapstick is right on!! Thank you!! Can't start liuid diet until testing this morning is complete, but have no desire to eat or drink!! Would love to just sleep, but you know what it is like being in the hospital! Ok, I am keeping a positive attitude! Hope all the other sleevers are doing well!!

Ok feeling better...24 hours since surgery. Was laying at the hospital today, feeling very crappy, and I had a great nurse that told me to get my ass out of bed and walk! I am so glad she motivated me bc I did feel much better. Never thought it would be hard to sip an ounce of water, but you learn quickly not to gulp! Only major complaint is the gas pain that has settled in my shoulder area! Ouchie! Hope everyone is doing well!!

Congratulations to you, I hope your recovery gets better for you.

I hope you are feeling better now
